The Handmaid's Tale First Look: Offred Is Out for Blood in Season 2 Photos

Want a hint of what to expect from Season 2 of The Handmaid’s Tale? We can confirm this much: There will be blood.

Fresh off big wins at the Golden Globes and the Critics’ Choice Awards, Hulu’s dystopian drama is gearing up for its sophomore run, and these first-look photos give us a glimpse of what’s next for Offred (Emmy winner Elisabeth Moss) and her fellow handmaids. Last we saw Offred, she was pregnant and being hauled away in a Gilead van for defying Aunt Lydia’s orders… but from the looks of the photo above, which shows Offred drenched in blood and wearing a defiant stare, she’s not going away without a fight.

We’ll learn more when The Handmaid’s Tale returns for Season 2 in April on Hulu.
